GREENOCK, OCT. 30.—The Jason, STEWART, of this port, is entirely lost upon the island of Orchilla— the crew saved. Ttie following particulars upon the subject, are extra&ed from a letter by the Mate un der:tiatte Curagoa, 3 tst of August, 1809, to his wife in this town, received on Saturday last :—" I am sorry to infortr. you of our misfortune of being cast away, upon the 17th inst. upon the island of HorchtllJ, upon our passage down from Trinidad to ttlis place. We were upon the island ten days, saving what we could of the cargo, and got it brought to this place by two vessels that, by good luck, came to the 'lsland to catch turtle.

The Captain contradiOts the report of a French frigate having been seen cruizing off the coast of Nova Scotia, and Gulph of St. Lawrence. According to private letters from Portugal, Lord WELLINGTON has established magazines at Al meida, with a view of oppoiing the enemy, in case he should make an attack on Cuidad Rodrigo, 'which-he was still expe&ed to do. Sir Itoinintr WILS ON had charge of the flying bridge at Villa Velha, and,occupied the frontier north of the Tagus. The Duke del PARQUE was near Ciudad Rodrigo, 'waiting for reinforcements.

The sterling old Comedy of Every Man in his Rumour was attended last night by a very numerous audience, so numerous indeed that we were in hopes the perlons who appear every night in oppos , tion to the Proprietors would 'have idrnd no route for ad mission. In this hope we remained till the conclu sion of the third a&, though some unruly symptoms broke ont during the previous representation. When, however, the hall-price reinforcement arrived, the usual tempest began to rage, and continued through tire remainder of the play, and during the represent.; ation of Oscar and Malvina. The Placard system was resumed, but though there was nothing pointed or titiiking in any of the new insctiptions, they served as toe! to the flame whenever they were ex hibited.—The letters 0. P. (Old i.=) were On spicuous on many peril -, ;, who ptned in every species of hooting, ate. &c. &e. The boxes as well as the pit, coil!...ned many opponents of the Proprietors, and t!;e tumult was at'great as on any Jorcuer occa About eleven the'drarnatic enter taintnents- concluded, and then, afteithe opposition had indulged themselves in roaring God save the King, and raising cheers for themselves and groans tor the Proprietors, they left thelleatre in detach ed bodies. THE LYCEUM.—The Comedy of The Rivals 1778 represented last night at this. Theatre, and M rs. 1 FottßEs . , who two 'or three years ago performed 4/tinci - , in The frill, assumed the character of Julia. This Lady has a . pleasing lade figure ; her voice is well toned, and her articulation distinet. She is not quite in the bloom of youth, but she is altogether in teresting. There is a tenderness in her mariner well suited to the character of Julia.; she was very affect ; lug in the scene where she separates from her ca pricious, or rather anxious lover, ,Falkland Hoe i LAND perform:Li ibis chat acter. He i% always at tentwe and . curreet, ut the part is' above the reach of his abilities, though in the present state of this Theatre we keow'not weo else could have taken it. I‘iiWRENCH is quite.an Atoll. He performed the par r. t of Captain Absolute, and it bustle and zeal were all ,that it required, he could not be said to have seamed his duty, DowroN's" Sir Anthony was, as usual, excellent, and Mrs. ORGER displayed great improvement since she first appeared in the Fart of Lydia Languish. It is enough to say 'that JOHNSTONE was Sir Lucius, to intimate that the cha racter was admirably performed. Mr. KIi:SIIILE has-been confined for the last two days by a eh dent fit of the gout. Mrs. JORDAN, by her recent trip to Chester, Lei cester,. and Liverpool, cleared near 12001. a proof that theatrical judgment is net confined to the me tropolis. There is reason to hope that this excel lent aaress will gratify the public for a few nights at the Lyceum during, the present season, though we understand that sbe has declined an engagement for the season. It has been stated that the Patentees of Drury lane Theatre have brought an action against ELLIS TON, for non-performance of his contrast, in refus ing to play at the Lyceum. ELLISTON has.contra dictedehis report, and holds out a " proud defiance." It is also said that several members . of the old Drury lane Band have brought an action against the Paten tees, for not giving theta siutihfr siteetions in the Lyceum orchestra. As the winter license was un derstood to have been procured for the whole of the Drury-lane company, the latter plead a poetive right to regain their stations. Mr. Seew, the former Leader, is among the complainants, and certainly , oubody can deny his qualiticaeotis for the office. e 7 !,1141'. BETTY, the father of the celebrated Young Roscius, has purchased a valuable estate near Shrews bury, upon which he now resides. Last week three vessels sailed from Chatham; Mere mouth, and FahnouthefOr Fraece, with aged French prisoners„ to exchange for old English prisoners. INDIA Houste-e-Yesterday a Court of DireCtors was held, when"Ciptain H. - LINDqAY was sworn into the cotornarid of the ship Winchelsea, con sgned to Bombay and China.

OfiV GAIL EY. • Yesterday the Sessions cona-nencee berate the; I.litt,ht Hon. Lord ELLENE - OR.)Uq!-I, Mc. Baton THomrsoni; Mr. Justice LAWRENCE, the LORD hi AVOR , nRCORDER , and City O.n , - . John Dolson, an al bletie you - ng mats, was capitally ie,dieted for a highway'rob6ery. John Ics-tirick, the Prosecutor, who is a soldie- in 'Power Hamlets Militia, stated, that on the 22d of Uctoher, about one o'clock, as he was coming through Old -street, on - his way to Golden-lane, the Prisoner and .mother man came up to him inn very friendly manner; and that the Vriscner a,ked him whether he knew The' Piow,utor could not recoiled hitn, and the two men laid hold of his arms very closely, when he felt aj, rk at his watch-pocket, and he afterwards saw his watch chain hanging Out of the Prisoner's coat pocket. The other man then ran away, and the Prisoner put his hand into Ken' lick's side pocket and took his pocket-book, which he immediately put into his own. The ProLecutOi then challenged'ilim with the robbery, and a Mr; Cullum, a cabinet-m2ker, appeared, who saw the transataion over his window. The Prisoner Mime-. diately gave the Prosecutor a violent blow, whieh knocked him agi:nst the wail, and ran.away ; .ht* was, however, closely pursued, and having gone uo . a court, • from which there was no thoroughfare, he returned with a knife in his hand, and was secured by tLe next witness. Joseph Prince, Headhorough of St. Luke's, stated, that bearing the cry of'' Stop thief," and seeing the Prisoner running, he endeavoured to stop imn. The Prisoner made use of horrid expression, and thrent erred to knock him down, hut the witness persived, and after a short struggle, he, with the assistance ut the people colle6ted, secured and searched him.— Nothing was found on his person, hut the pocket• book was found near to the place where he was searched. Mr. John Walden stated, that having heard of the robbery, he went up the court, through which the Prisoner endeavoured to make his esca v e, and found a watch, whit the -chain and seals, wh:cli the Prose cutor had descrintd, lying in a yard adjoining hio own, and which was separated from the court by a five feet wall. Mr. Cullum corroborated the soldier in his account: of the robbery. The Prisoner made no defence, and the Jury,with out hesitation,. found him Guilty—Death. illary Haines was indicted tor burgbriously en tering the dwelling-house nf Mr. Greggs, at Aaon, and stealing a 21.• note and some articles of plate.— Tie circumstances of the robbery, with which our rea;lers are already ilegnainted, were delailL4, but the Prosecutorhaving gi% en her a good chai.cter for ho nesty during, the six years th.lt she - was in hi s se t. vice, and - stated, that suhjetc.l to fits of de. rangement, which she crideay._ t to core by drinking spirituous liquors, but wni:±., his opi, pion, increased hi-r disorder, the jury ocrii.ltied her. Ann Cooper was inditatd for ..stealing a silver watch, and a number of articles of wearing apparel from a dWelling-house. .The substance of the eV., dence was, that the Prisoner went to lodge in an apartment belonging to Mr. Chapman, the Prose . • tutor, and after she had lodged in the,house seven days, she, on the night of tile 3d of October, afitl Mr. and Mrs.. Chapman had gone to sleep, took 024 watch from the bead of their bed, and three or four Suits of :women's apparel from their drawers, and _ _ decatnpe4. Mr. Chapman, after, a ,tedious search, at last found km- on board his Mrajesv'S ship C/tris thin-thelith, Shithead, elegantly; dressed in ti:s • e • iivife's•best suit of clothes; the remainder was found in her - bundle, and the watch was• found at a pawn. !' broker's in London ; where she centessed having pledged it.

James Bishop and George Bomber were conviCteki Of stealitio carpet .from a house, ,belonging to Mr. Stockdale, the boaseller . ; but the capital part of the charge was done away, as it was not his dwell ing-house. Joseph Hansen was capitally convicted for bur ; glariously breaking into the dwelling-house ot no bert Sheddon, in Gower-street. St. Giks's, and te ; loniously stealing thereon' several articles of wearing apparel. The Prisoner was an •old offender against the law, although only 19 years of age. 111IDDLESLX SESSIONS. Yesterday a person was indi&ed for receiving goods„knoi,vitig thew to be stolen. But the evi dence did not support the case, and he was ac- quitted. Butert Thompson, Edward Cole, and another person, were indicted for a riot and assault. They were severally found guilty, and Thompson was sentenced to 14 days imprisonment; the other two to seven days each. Abraham Polock was found guilty of a violent as sault, attended with some circumstances of aggro N . ation, for which he was sentenced to two months imprisonment. Thomas Tuck, a tailor, from Hackney, stood in diaed for - an assault, with an intent of committing an abominable offence. The principal witness against him was a young lad, the son of an eminent tradesman in Houndsditch, and who has a house at Homerton. When the vile attempt was ventured (which happened as the Prosecutor was proceeding across the fidJs to Homerton), the Dcfeildmn was knocked doWn by the Prosecutor, .The Dttendant was . Convittekand sentenced to two years imprison ment in the House of Correaion, Cold-Bath-Fields. He is an - aged man, and lived in some degree of re pate till this Circumstance was developed.
